Simple Process Flow At a Glance

You can use DataMigrator to design process flows ranging from simple, where you use only a few process flow components, to complex, where you take advantage of a wide range of components.

In the example shown in the following image, the process flow includes a data flow that is scheduled to run weekly, on Thursdays, starting at midnight. At the end of each run, an email message is sent to a designated recipient to indicate the successful completion of the data flow processing.

To create a simple process flow:

1. Open a new flow and click the Process Flow tab.

   The Start object appears by default.

2. To add a data flow object, drag the data flow from the navigation pane into the workspace.
3. To add an email object and create a message, ensure that your server is configured for email notification.
4. To add a Schedule, specify when and how often to run the process flow in the Start object properties. For more information, see Scheduling a Process Flow.
5. Connect the objects.
6. Save and run the process flow.
7. View the log file for flow processing details.
